1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:02,360
Disgusting animal!
2
00:00:02,492 --> 00:00:03,925
You're a disgrace!
3
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:04,990
Shameful!
4
00:00:05,328 --> 00:00:06,929
You've ruined my reputation! Go to hell!
5
00:00:06,997 --> 00:00:08,797
- Get out!
- Dad!
6
00:00:14,004 --> 00:00:20,340
Disgusting animal, get out!
Get the hell out!
7
00:00:20,341 --> 00:00:21,602
Dad! Stop it!
8
00:00:21,603 --> 00:00:23,541
Get out! Out! Disgusting animal!
9
00:00:23,542 --> 00:00:28,583
Dad! Stop hitting me!
10
00:00:29,919 --> 00:00:31,719
Dad!
11
00:00:43,266 --> 00:00:45,066
Stay where you are!
12
00:00:46,169 --> 00:00:47,969
Get back here!
13
00:00:48,238 --> 00:00:50,468
Get back here, animal!
14
00:00:51,074 --> 00:00:52,874
You're not my son!
15
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:32,000
"Crystal Boys"
16
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,999
From Pai Hsien-yung's novel.
17
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:42,000
Episode Number Three.
18
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,000
Producers: Ruiyuan Cao and Song Liu.
19
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,000
Overall Production: Guoxing Shu.
20
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,000
Production Coordinator: Xiaomei Li.
21
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,000
Adaptor: Hijie Chen.
22
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,000
Direction: Ruiyuan Cao.
23
00:02:34,617 --> 00:02:40,888
So young... No dignity...
Totally inappropriate...
24
00:02:42,425 --> 00:02:50,765
Two grown men. Kissing each other
into a tight embrace. So indecent!
25
00:02:53,202 --> 00:02:56,838
Your fathers and mothers
care for you since your birth.
26
00:02:56,839 --> 00:03:00,939
I'll let them know how indecent, how
awful is this act you have committed.
27
00:03:02,145 --> 00:03:05,646
Will their hearts hurt?
Will they be sad and disappointed?
28
00:03:07,283 --> 00:03:09,083
Turn around.
29
00:03:12,655 --> 00:03:14,455
Turn around!
30
00:03:21,964 --> 00:03:24,064
Pull down your pants.
31
00:03:26,803 --> 00:03:31,572
What?
Now you feel a modest sense of shame?
32
00:03:32,242 --> 00:03:37,512
Earlier in the laboratory why didn't you
have this shame? Pull down your pants!
33
00:03:48,024 --> 00:03:54,630
Inappropriate! No sense of decency!
Take that!
34
00:04:01,170 --> 00:04:03,170
Get up.
35
00:04:05,375 --> 00:04:12,146
So young...
Not even a sense of shame!
36
00:04:41,577 --> 00:04:49,450
Tomorrow morning at ten bring your parents
with you to school. Do you understand?
37
00:04:51,788 --> 00:04:53,588
DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
38
00:04:54,157 --> 00:04:55,957
Understand.
39
00:05:20,149 --> 00:05:21,949
Zhao Ying.
40
00:05:22,952 --> 00:05:24,883
Sorry.
I didn't know this would happen.
41
00:05:24,884 --> 00:05:27,825
I don't want to hear you mention a
single word about this anymore.
42
00:05:29,859 --> 00:05:31,759
I really didn't do it on purpose.
43
00:05:32,695 --> 00:05:36,726
I don't want to hear a single word
about it anymore. Did you hear me?!
44
00:05:36,727 --> 00:05:38,764
Don't ever talk to me again!
45
00:07:18,917 --> 00:07:22,767
The watchman of the school
discovered that student Li Qing
46
00:07:23,406 --> 00:07:25,966
on the 3rd day of the current
month at about 11 o'clock
47
00:07:26,442 --> 00:07:30,735
in the chemistry lab
was involved in obscene acts.
48
00:07:31,414 --> 00:07:33,974
He was caught in the act
and detained by security.
49
00:07:35,151 --> 00:07:38,348
The student's conduct has been
considered highly dishonorable
50
00:07:38,588 --> 00:07:40,502
and harmful to the
reputation of this school.
51
00:07:40,890 --> 00:07:43,153
For this reason, his
conduct has been denounced
52
00:07:43,154 --> 00:07:46,317
and he has been expelled from the
school as a warning to other students.
53
00:07:46,318 --> 00:07:52,797
This is the official decision of the
director of Yude School, Gao Yitian.
54
00:07:53,002 --> 00:07:54,802
Disgusting animal!
55
00:07:54,837 --> 00:07:56,098
You're a disgrace!
56
00:07:56,099 --> 00:07:57,899
Shameful!
57
00:07:58,341 --> 00:08:00,968
You've ruined my reputation!
58
00:08:00,969 --> 00:08:02,633
I'll kill you!
59
00:08:02,634 --> 00:08:04,540
Go to hell!
60
00:08:04,541 --> 00:08:05,203
Dad!
61
00:08:05,204 --> 00:08:07,413
- Die!
- Dad!
62
00:08:07,414 --> 00:08:08,840
- Filthy animal!
- Dad!
63
00:08:08,841 --> 00:08:12,212
- Filthy animal! Die!
- Stop hitting me!
64
00:08:12,213 --> 00:08:14,347
This is what you gave me?
Get out of my sight!
65
00:08:14,348 --> 00:08:16,348
Dad!
66
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:22,329
That afternoon,
my father threw me out of the house.
67
00:08:24,534 --> 00:08:28,365
That day, our street was illuminated by the
sun, a light that made everything white.
68
00:08:30,539 --> 00:08:40,214
I was barefoot. I just tried to run as far
away as possible, turning my head back
69
00:08:40,483 --> 00:08:42,815
I just saw Father's large and tall figure
70
00:08:43,753 --> 00:08:48,346
moving with emotion
repeatedly waving his arms
71
00:08:48,347 --> 00:08:52,020
like he had learned to do as a soldier
brandishing a weapon for self-defense
72
00:08:54,463 --> 00:08:59,357
with bloodshot eyes
filled with terrible anger.
73
00:12:35,150 --> 00:12:37,175
Buddy...
74
00:12:39,788 --> 00:12:43,649
Did you see? Have you found it,
after watching half the day?
75
00:12:44,632 --> 00:12:48,091
There's a fish down there, did you see?
76
00:12:50,337 --> 00:12:55,832
Be careful or you'll fall, stand well.
77
00:12:55,833 --> 00:12:59,705
- Call A-qing...
- A-qing...
78
00:14:12,348 --> 00:14:14,612
Little brother...
79
00:14:16,118 --> 00:14:19,920
Don't be afraid...
I'm not a bad guy.
80
00:14:22,324 --> 00:14:27,995
So late and you haven't returned home?
How about we chat for a bit?
81
00:14:29,224 --> 00:14:33,761
- Oh! This hand is ice cold.
- What are you doing?
82
00:14:35,571 --> 00:14:37,639
Do you not have anywhere to go?
83
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,876
How about tonight you come to
my house and stay the night?
84
00:14:42,878 --> 00:14:44,878
Hey! Don't go, don't go...
85
00:14:46,949 --> 00:14:53,582
I beg you, stay with me.
I'm very lonely, really.
86
00:14:53,583 --> 00:14:55,523
If you don't stop I won't
be polite with you anymore!
87
00:14:55,524 --> 00:15:00,337
Don't be mad, don't be mad.
How's this, how much money do you want?
88
00:15:00,929 --> 00:15:04,196
- We can negotiate, OK?
- What the heck are you saying?
89
00:15:05,834 --> 00:15:07,768
Hey! What kind of attitude is that?
90
00:15:07,789 --> 00:15:10,299
Do you figure out where you are
now and to whom this place is?
91
00:15:10,300 --> 00:15:15,566
Zhao Wuchang's spirit! Old sir,
you're here picking at people again.
92
00:15:15,944 --> 00:15:22,545
Not so. Old Guo, I felt sorry for this
poor child... I wanted to take him home...
93
00:15:22,546 --> 00:15:25,174
All right, all right...
Your natural instinct doesn't change.
94
00:15:25,175 --> 00:15:29,881
People ignore you but you still
cling stubbornly to it. Go back!
95
00:15:29,882 --> 00:15:35,887
Go back, old sir. Stop frightening people.
96
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,105
Don't be afraid, little brother.
97
00:15:51,513 --> 00:15:53,743
Is it your first time coming here?
98
00:15:54,516 --> 00:15:58,916
No, it's not. I was just
never came here this late.
99
00:16:00,422 --> 00:16:06,556
You not even wearing shoes.
Fled from home...?
100
00:16:09,098 --> 00:16:11,791
No need to say. I can guess
very likely what happened.
101
00:16:12,734 --> 00:16:17,969
Wilds boys like yourself
these years I've already seen many.
102
00:16:21,944 --> 00:16:27,977
Don't be afraid.
Here all of us are of the same path.
103
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:41,621
You guys, each in your turn
all eventually fly to my nest over here.
104
00:16:43,265 --> 00:16:48,468
I am the old gardener of this park.
Everyone calls me Old Guo.
105
00:16:49,312 --> 00:16:52,874
Any of you who enter
must first report to me.
106
00:16:53,876 --> 00:16:56,174
For example, that old
brother from a moment ago.
107
00:16:57,846 --> 00:17:01,946
Twelve years ago, he walked into
this park for the first time.
108
00:17:02,017 --> 00:17:04,017
It was I who received him.
109
00:17:05,554 --> 00:17:11,355
Twelve years...
Yeah, no less than twelve years.
110
00:17:12,995 --> 00:17:16,626
That evening, twelve years ago
just like yourself, of this present day
111
00:17:17,132 --> 00:17:20,033
he had once just walked into this nest.
112
00:17:20,836 --> 00:17:23,666
Then, he did not know where to go.
He couldn't be more lost.
113
00:17:23,667 --> 00:17:27,975
I'm the one who helped him up
and well, he has survived.
114
00:17:28,477 --> 00:17:31,469
You know at that time,
when he was 50 years old
115
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:36,579
he was in such good shape
and very attractive.
116
00:17:39,221 --> 00:17:41,589
At that time, I helped
taking many photos of him.
117
00:17:41,590 --> 00:17:47,549
If I was to show you, you wouldn't
believe it even if I forced you to.
118
00:17:50,966 --> 00:17:56,236
- Have you heard of the Youth Photo Studio?
- Never heard of it.
119
00:17:57,172 --> 00:18:00,266
Such a famous photo studio,
you've never heard of it?
120
00:18:01,777 --> 00:18:03,777
Never heard of it
121
00:18:05,013 --> 00:18:09,383
I opened it on Changchun Road.
122
00:18:10,385 --> 00:18:15,884
You know, I used to be
quite a little renowned photographer.
123
00:18:16,725 --> 00:18:21,458
I like those faces that
possess spirit and character.
124
00:18:22,030 --> 00:18:24,999
For example, those wild
little dolls in the park.
125
00:18:26,001 --> 00:18:31,663
Although wild, each and every
one has so much personality.
126
00:18:33,408 --> 00:18:36,275
I have an entire album
full of their photos.
127
00:18:41,216 --> 00:18:46,420
- What's your name?
- A-Qing.
128
00:18:47,889 --> 00:18:49,948
A-Qing...
129
00:18:54,930 --> 00:19:01,001
A-Qing, listen to me. Don't sleep
here tonight. You'll catch a cold.
130
00:19:01,403 --> 00:19:09,003
- I'll take you to a warmer place.
- No it's fine. I'm OK just sleeping here.
131
00:19:10,912 --> 00:19:14,681
You don't need to suspect me.
I'm not a bad guy.
132
00:19:15,092 --> 00:19:19,518
I'm not like those vultures
looking for a hookup. Not the same.
133
00:19:20,022 --> 00:19:24,413
Really, you can trust me. Think about it.
You're stronger than me.
134
00:19:24,414 --> 00:19:28,728
If I wanted to try something...
I don't stand a chance.
135
00:19:31,623 --> 00:19:35,898
Let's go. I'll take you to see
those great workpieces of mine
136
00:19:36,305 --> 00:19:40,031
and also tell you
some of the stories of this park.
137
00:19:47,683 --> 00:19:52,219
- What's this?
- My harmonica.
138
00:19:52,501 --> 00:19:57,786
Let's go then.
If not, it'll get even darker and colder.
139
00:20:31,942 --> 00:20:37,397
- That's Yang Feng. Do you know him?
- No.
140
00:20:37,799 --> 00:20:40,892
A decade ago he was the famous
young star in Taiwanese films.
141
00:20:40,893 --> 00:20:44,444
He starred in "Lonesome Flower" and "Rain
All Night" and became a celebrity.
142
00:20:44,706 --> 00:20:48,041
I've heard of "Lonesome Flower"
but never seen it.
143
00:20:48,143 --> 00:20:51,678
Of course you haven't seen it.
That movie is so old!
144
00:20:52,725 --> 00:20:56,750
Yang Feng...
Sometimes would find his way to the park.
145
00:20:57,085 --> 00:21:02,822
But nowadays he's started balding.
He doesn't have hair anymore.
146
00:21:07,562 --> 00:21:09,562
Come eat.
147
00:21:13,201 --> 00:21:16,770
- Is this all for me?
- Yes it is.
148
00:21:27,849 --> 00:21:32,273
Look, you've become so hungry.
You haven't eaten all day, have you?
149
00:21:34,790 --> 00:21:37,350
Eat slower, eat slower, or you'll choke.
150
00:21:43,658 --> 00:21:46,933
A-Qing.
What does your family do?
151
00:21:55,660 --> 00:22:00,040
My dad used to be a soldier but now
he's working at a credit union.
152
00:22:02,717 --> 00:22:06,615
A soldier...
Well, that explains a lot.
153
00:22:10,058 --> 00:22:12,683
Who else is there in your family?
154
00:22:18,700 --> 00:22:21,000
No one else.
155
00:22:25,674 --> 00:22:27,874
Only one child?
156
00:22:35,016 --> 00:22:40,488
No...
I used to have a little brother...
157
00:22:42,524 --> 00:22:45,618
but he passed away a few days ago.
158
00:22:49,495 --> 00:22:51,795
Is your mother still around?
159
00:23:01,042 --> 00:23:03,242
What's wrong?
160
00:23:10,968 --> 00:23:16,323
It's OK... Don't talk if you
don't feel like it. It's OK.
161
00:23:18,026 --> 00:23:20,026
It's fine.
162
00:23:33,675 --> 00:23:35,740
A-Qing, eat slowly
163
00:23:35,967 --> 00:23:39,273
I'll go upstairs and get those
photos I've taken, to show you.
164
00:24:32,827 --> 00:24:36,102
Are you full?
Here, look at this.
165
00:24:41,009 --> 00:24:45,708
The entire history of the park is in here.
166
00:24:49,284 --> 00:24:53,077
Inside that album
every pages were filled with photos.
167
00:24:54,689 --> 00:24:57,419
Some bigger some smaller,
all photos of young people
168
00:24:59,594 --> 00:25:01,994
one standing straight
with head held high
169
00:25:02,097 --> 00:25:04,861
with a fearless expression,
unafraid of anything anywhere.
170
00:25:06,735 --> 00:25:08,535
One looking scared and timid.
171
00:25:09,337 --> 00:25:13,699
Inside a large pair of eyes
it was filled with a premature melancholy.
172
00:25:16,678 --> 00:25:22,010
Under each picture there was a number
indicating a date and a name.
173
00:25:24,519 --> 00:25:31,581
This little sparrow. Only 14 when he
came alone from Hualian to Taipei.
174
00:25:31,582 --> 00:25:38,198
That one... Lied, stole, he did it all...
Even blackmailed.
175
00:25:38,199 --> 00:25:40,964
You know, this picture here...
originally he wouldn't let me take it.
176
00:25:40,966 --> 00:25:44,426
I had to negotiate with ice cream
and he finally agreed.
177
00:25:45,974 --> 00:25:48,602
But in the end, he still flew away.
178
00:25:51,780 --> 00:25:57,741
Two years ago, in Sanshui,
at a dark alley, I met him.
179
00:25:58,553 --> 00:26:05,249
Crouching next to a sewer that smelled
awful, with face covered of running sores.
180
00:26:12,300 --> 00:26:19,936
This is Tao Tailang. Tall and skinny.
He was like a Japanese crane.
181
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:27,978
Unfortunately, his life was short-lived. He got
together with a hairdresser from Ximending.
182
00:26:27,979 --> 00:26:34,087
They were together for two years until the other
guy's family forced him to marry a woman.
183
00:26:35,123 --> 00:26:41,557
Our Tao Tailang attended that hairdresser's
wedding. He even toasted to the groom.
184
00:26:41,558 --> 00:26:46,400
After the ceremony and festivities, he
walked alone to the Zhongxing bridge.
185
00:26:46,401 --> 00:26:54,429
He faced the Danshui River and then jumped
off. They haven't even found the body.
186
00:27:04,519 --> 00:27:06,384
This one's name is Xu Xiaofu.
187
00:27:07,188 --> 00:27:11,751
His skin was very delicate.
I called him White Word Bird.
188
00:27:11,752 --> 00:27:13,517
Five years ago he
fell madly in love
189
00:27:13,519 --> 00:27:18,496
with a boy from San Francisco who
returned to Taiwan to study Chinese.
190
00:27:18,526 --> 00:27:23,563
After a while, the guy went back to America
and Fu Yu lost his mind.
191
00:27:23,972 --> 00:27:27,305
He was taken to the psychiatric
hospital in Taipei.
192
00:27:30,378 --> 00:27:34,247
These birds
don't just fall in love.
193
00:27:35,031 --> 00:27:41,180
Once they find love it seems that the
world always falls apart around them.
194
00:27:49,764 --> 00:27:57,234
This one...
This one is called A-Feng.
195
00:27:57,243 --> 00:28:05,377
Among all these boys, his life history
was the most odd and desolate one.
196
00:28:11,352 --> 00:28:16,120
This wild phoenix's mother
was deaf and dumb.
197
00:28:16,524 --> 00:28:21,154
When she was 18 she was raped by armed
thugs that have made her pregnant.
198
00:28:21,155 --> 00:28:23,655
She then gave birth to A-Feng.
199
00:28:23,909 --> 00:28:27,934
Once A-Feng was born, he was abandoned
at the Lingguang Institute in Zhonghe.
200
00:28:29,504 --> 00:28:33,000
Since childhood A-Feng has shown to possess
intelligence above average.
201
00:28:33,001 --> 00:28:35,843
When the priests tried to
impart to him the catechism
202
00:28:35,844 --> 00:28:39,179
he looked at it once
and then had it memorized.
203
00:28:40,348 --> 00:28:45,983
However this child was strange and
rebellious and had mood swings.
204
00:28:46,497 --> 00:28:51,388
For no reason, he picked fights and
made fun of kids in the hospital.
205
00:28:53,561 --> 00:29:01,031
He, at age sixteen, because he
refused to participate in the mass,
206
00:29:01,032 --> 00:29:03,132
began to quarrel with the director.
207
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,567
Becoming angry, he took a holy
figurine and smashed it to the ground,
208
00:29:07,568 --> 00:29:10,999
reducing it to pieces,
and then was expelled from the Institute.
209
00:29:11,446 --> 00:29:13,711
He never went back.
210
00:29:29,364 --> 00:29:35,463
Once A-Feng entered New Park,
he was just like a horse without a bridle.
211
00:29:36,471 --> 00:29:43,735
He walked right along his way, going back
and forth the steps by the lilly pond,
212
00:29:43,945 --> 00:29:48,477
not sparing a glance for anybody,
not yielding to anyone.
213
00:29:48,983 --> 00:29:53,912
Because he had a difficult temper
even a kind person in the park
214
00:29:54,322 --> 00:29:56,722
wasn't quite up to approaching him.
215
00:29:57,058 --> 00:30:03,893
Until that year he was 18, how
should I say... Fate caught up.
216
00:30:04,265 --> 00:30:06,756
He deliberately met up
with his unlucky star.
217
00:30:07,502 --> 00:30:10,470
The guy was a big
government official's son.
218
00:30:10,471 --> 00:30:13,604
His astrological sign was the dragon.
People call him Dragon Prince.
219
00:30:14,842 --> 00:30:20,377
When they met there was a spark between the
two that wouldn't be easily extinguished.
220
00:30:21,683 --> 00:30:24,745
But afterwards, Dragon
Prince's parents stepped in,
221
00:30:24,746 --> 00:30:27,946
intent on cutting the
connection between the two.
222
00:30:28,990 --> 00:30:31,190
Well... Afterwards,
everything changed.
223
00:30:38,333 --> 00:30:44,427
Dragon Prince ran away from home
all throughout Taipei in a frenzy.
224
00:30:45,406 --> 00:30:49,604
Finally, in the freezing New Year's Eve,
225
00:30:49,911 --> 00:30:53,108
inside that park, he
once again found A-Feng.
226
00:30:56,651 --> 00:31:01,147
He begged him to come back with him
but A-Feng rejected him.
227
00:31:01,155 --> 00:31:03,179
The two fought and struggled
for a very long time.
228
00:31:03,180 --> 00:31:04,980
Let go!
229
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,760
Let go!
230
00:31:08,296 --> 00:31:10,161
Give me back my heart!
231
00:31:10,398 --> 00:31:13,464
Dragon Prince, with a knife in his
hand stuck it into A-Feng's chest.
232
00:31:15,903 --> 00:31:20,169
A-Feng slumped to the ground in New Park
233
00:31:21,275 --> 00:31:26,235
with streams of warm blood gushing
out of his chest all over.
234
00:32:09,757 --> 00:32:12,246
Well what happened afterwards?
235
00:32:17,131 --> 00:32:22,071
Afterwards, Dragon Prince sat
down in the pool of blood,
236
00:32:23,004 --> 00:32:30,042
tightly embracing A-Feng
and lost his mind.
237
00:32:55,970 --> 00:33:00,034
All right. I'm tired.
I'm going to sleep.
238
00:33:02,043 --> 00:33:05,700
I'll get a warm towel and
clean clothes for you, OK?
239
00:33:05,780 --> 00:33:07,780
Thanks.
240
00:35:46,274 --> 00:35:50,009
- Buddy.
- A-Qing.
241
00:35:50,778 --> 00:35:52,578
A-Qing.
242
00:36:04,425 --> 00:36:06,655
Come on, come on, try and catch me...
243
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:59,235
Old Guo,
tomorrow I need to stop by Liuzhangli.
244
00:37:01,015 --> 00:37:03,873
It's my little brother's funeral.
245
00:37:07,221 --> 00:37:12,992
- Will you see your dad?
- Probably...
246
00:37:16,931 --> 00:37:22,028
But this is Buddy's final trip...
I must see him off.
247
00:38:35,409 --> 00:38:37,809
Enough! The noise is killing me.
248
00:38:54,261 --> 00:39:00,694
Perhaps for my father, the departure of
mother and his throwing me out of the house
249
00:39:02,837 --> 00:39:06,999
were not separate cases
from the death of Buddy.
250
00:39:07,007 --> 00:39:09,771
We were all buried away
in that yellow earth.
251
00:39:13,948 --> 00:39:18,845
After this chapter of sending off Buddy,
it became clear to me that
252
00:39:20,654 --> 00:39:25,417
this house and I
no longer had any connection to each other.
253
00:39:47,249 --> 00:39:54,047
Let's just capture what you look like
normally. Okay. Relax and take a breath.
254
00:39:55,356 --> 00:39:57,156
Good, good.
255
00:39:59,460 --> 00:40:01,260
Don't move, OK?
256
00:40:15,409 --> 00:40:20,346
Here...
Look forward...
257
00:40:20,748 --> 00:40:22,978
Good, good.
258
00:40:23,918 --> 00:40:26,482
Smile.
Very good.
259
00:40:26,483 --> 00:40:28,283
Chin...
260
00:40:29,123 --> 00:40:32,891
Relax, take a breath.
Fantastic.
261
00:40:47,274 --> 00:40:48,901
Take a look, take a look.
262
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:54,571
Old Guo wasn't lying to you about his technique,
look! You really have the look of a star.
263
00:40:59,332 --> 00:41:02,583
- Kind of strange looking.
- What's strange?
264
00:41:02,957 --> 00:41:05,391
It's the first time for me
to do these kinds of photos.
265
00:41:05,392 --> 00:41:08,955
- It doesn't look like me.
- How does it not?
266
00:41:09,029 --> 00:41:12,932
It does!
I've shot photos for so many years.
267
00:41:12,933 --> 00:41:18,834
What I'm really good at is
capturing the essence within a person.
268
00:41:19,540 --> 00:41:27,040
Look at those eyes. Sharp. Like they're
going to cut right through the photo.
269
00:41:37,591 --> 00:41:42,925
A-Qing. From here on, what do
you have planned for yourself?
270
00:41:47,468 --> 00:41:55,006
First find somewhere to settle down
probably, then look for some work to do.
271
00:41:56,043 --> 00:42:01,474
You're young and strong. Finding some
cheaply paid work shouldn't be too hard.
272
00:42:01,982 --> 00:42:06,285
But I was referring to more long-term goals
like your schooling.
273
00:42:06,620 --> 00:42:11,819
Without even a high school diploma, in the
future when you venture into society,
274
00:42:11,859 --> 00:42:14,489
your life will not be easy.
275
00:42:16,697 --> 00:42:20,049
I have no riches
but if you consent
276
00:42:20,135 --> 00:42:24,893
paying for a portion of your studies
won't be a problem.
277
00:42:26,407 --> 00:42:33,246
No need, Old Guo.
I was expelled from school.
278
00:42:34,848 --> 00:42:37,283
There should probably be no
schools willing to accept me.
279
00:42:42,322 --> 00:42:46,589
These "educators"
just love to blow things out of proportion!
280
00:42:48,697 --> 00:42:53,130
Even for breaking a rule they decided
to destroy the future of a pupil...
281
00:42:58,605 --> 00:43:05,101
If you think back on it, don't you think
you guys were being too impulsive?
282
00:43:05,579 --> 00:43:08,878
Why would you at a place like the school...
283
00:43:21,161 --> 00:43:22,961
A-Qing.
284
00:43:24,398 --> 00:43:31,003
Having this situation arise for any parent
is probably very difficult to accept.
285
00:43:32,339 --> 00:43:35,206
But I want to say a word of truth.
286
00:43:37,746 --> 00:43:42,576
Anyone who is a parent
bears some feelings for their children,
287
00:43:43,183 --> 00:43:45,981
for no other reason than
being their children.
288
00:43:47,889 --> 00:43:54,890
Because you are born of their own flesh
and blood they will not hate you forever.
289
00:43:58,165 --> 00:43:59,965
Do you understand?
290
00:44:29,229 --> 00:44:35,025
Don't worry... Shed whatever
tears your heart needs to shed.
291
00:44:35,602 --> 00:44:39,331
Just let out whatever you
need to, don't worry.
292
00:44:39,907 --> 00:44:44,173
- I can understand.
- My dad called me a filthy animal.
293
00:44:46,513 --> 00:44:48,940
He said I was no son of his.
294
00:44:53,454 --> 00:44:58,000
He told me all his hopes
had been placed on me.
295
00:44:58,091 --> 00:45:00,216
In the end he called me a filthy animal.
296
00:45:08,368 --> 00:45:11,599
A-Qing, I can understand.
297
00:45:13,073 --> 00:45:15,073
I understand.
298
00:45:28,062 --> 00:45:31,313
- Water.
- Thank you.
299
00:45:33,494 --> 00:45:36,933
- Here, first have some water.
- Thank you.
300
00:45:36,965 --> 00:45:39,591
Do you have any previous work experience?
301
00:45:39,592 --> 00:45:43,002
I delivered newspapers
before when I was a kid.
302
00:45:43,003 --> 00:45:48,474
This type of job is different... You don't
just need to endure and to have patience.
303
00:45:48,475 --> 00:45:52,408
And most importantly you always have
to smile at people at all times.
304
00:45:52,980 --> 00:45:58,141
- Do you think you can handle it?
- I think... it should be fine.
305
00:45:59,186 --> 00:46:01,881
It's just I'm worried I have no skills.
306
00:46:02,423 --> 00:46:05,688
Actually, serving dishes, making
coffee, outing fruit, these activities
307
00:46:05,689 --> 00:46:07,726
can all be be learned quickly.
308
00:46:08,161 --> 00:46:10,789
But the most important
thing is this...
309
00:46:11,231 --> 00:46:13,031
and this.
310
00:46:14,468 --> 00:46:19,304
- You know what I'm referring to?
- I know.
311
00:46:19,474 --> 00:46:24,110
I know the reason you're looking for work
is just to help make ends meet.
312
00:46:24,111 --> 00:46:26,909
But I hope that you really try
and treat this seriously.
313
00:46:26,910 --> 00:46:30,478
In the past, Old Guo introduced
to other kids to me over here.
314
00:46:30,479 --> 00:46:34,217
But all of them didn't work really long
before giving up and taking off.
315
00:46:35,088 --> 00:46:36,888
I hope you aren't like them.
316
00:46:40,127 --> 00:46:41,927
A-Qing.
317
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:47,232
In the past I've also been to New Park,
but I'd still like to tell you frankly.
318
00:46:48,235 --> 00:46:50,769
People like us are
God's practical jokes.
319
00:46:52,439 --> 00:46:55,875
If anyone had the choice
nobody would choose to go this path.
320
00:46:57,144 --> 00:46:58,998
But now there are no other choices.
321
00:46:58,999 --> 00:47:01,639
You must walk with your shoulders
straight and head high.
322
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,741
Don't let the "normal people"
look down on us.
323
00:47:07,654 --> 00:47:11,957
You just started off, you still have hope.
You're young, so work a little harder.
324
00:47:12,272 --> 00:47:15,523
If you continue to sink,
you may reach the point of no return.
325
00:47:19,633 --> 00:47:21,793
All right. Go and change
into your uniform then.
326
00:47:21,794 --> 00:47:23,869
Okay. Thank you Director.
327
00:47:55,068 --> 00:47:58,100
Hi!
328
00:47:58,405 --> 00:48:02,140
Good afternoon. [japanese]
My name is Little Jade.
329
00:48:02,209 --> 00:48:04,534
First time we meet. I hope you're well.
330
00:48:05,746 --> 00:48:09,443
- I... can't understand you.
- I said good afternoon.
331
00:48:09,444 --> 00:48:12,680
I'm Little Jade.
It's a pleasure to meet you.
332
00:48:13,146 --> 00:48:15,552
My pleasure.
I'm A-Qing.
333
00:48:15,553 --> 00:48:17,353
A-Qing.
334
00:48:17,724 --> 00:48:21,793
- Your Japanese is really good.
- Well because I AM Japanese.
335
00:48:21,895 --> 00:48:26,663
You're Japanese? Then you're pretty
amazing. You speak Mandarin so well.
336
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:32,266
Well...
I should say I'm from Japanese roots.
337
00:48:34,474 --> 00:48:37,170
I heard Tokyo is big and
we can have a lot of fun.
338
00:48:38,221 --> 00:48:44,314
True. Those pagodas in
Tokyo are big, really big.
339
00:48:45,852 --> 00:48:49,779
Hey, Chief.
Have you already eaten?
340
00:48:50,090 --> 00:48:54,983
Yeah.
You're the new guy referred by Old Guo?
341
00:48:55,028 --> 00:48:58,096
- Yes.
- His name is A-Qing.
342
00:48:59,133 --> 00:49:05,097
So you're just like Little Jade? One of
those bunnies straight from New Park?
343
00:49:06,907 --> 00:49:10,334
I really don't get your kind.
Unbelievable.
344
00:49:14,415 --> 00:49:17,246
Actually, I don't have
problems with anyone.
345
00:49:17,317 --> 00:49:19,453
But I warn you.
346
00:49:19,453 --> 00:49:23,086
When you're here, if you mess with me,
I won't let you get away with it.
347
00:49:23,390 --> 00:49:25,807
- You hear?
- Yes.
348
00:49:25,926 --> 00:49:33,695
Chief, don't you worry. You're the "fairest
of them all" here. We are no match for you.
349
00:49:33,996 --> 00:49:38,103
Enough of that.
You need to report to me soon.
350
00:49:38,105 --> 00:49:39,333
Ok.
351
00:49:39,334 --> 00:49:41,134
Clean this cup.
352
00:49:48,615 --> 00:49:54,510
Don't pay any heed to people like that.
If he picks on you, just let it go.
353
00:49:54,511 --> 00:49:57,999
Just report him to Manager Yan.
354
00:50:01,428 --> 00:50:06,294
Actually... you know when I first saw
you come in, I suspected that you were.
355
00:50:08,502 --> 00:50:12,337
- I was what?
- You know...
356
00:50:17,577 --> 00:50:21,707
But... am I that obvious?
357
00:50:22,625 --> 00:50:28,684
Well, no. It's just... I don't know...
Just a feeling.
358
00:50:28,689 --> 00:50:33,187
I have the nose of a dog. It's like a radar
and I have the strongest scent of all.
359
00:50:41,769 --> 00:50:45,904
Where are you living?
At the Old Guo's house?
360
00:50:46,039 --> 00:50:48,200
Right. You know him too?
361
00:50:48,816 --> 00:50:52,241
Of course I know him...
He's the founder of our park.
362
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:56,076
Didn't he show you
his "Birds of Youth" album?
363
00:50:56,316 --> 00:50:59,817
- Yeah.
- Well don't you recognize me then?
364
00:51:00,720 --> 00:51:05,218
I'm Number 81!
The peacock of seven hues.
365
00:51:07,294 --> 00:51:09,562
What? I don't look like him?
366
00:51:09,563 --> 00:51:12,760
Yeah, yeah... you resemble...
very suitable.
367
00:51:13,534 --> 00:51:18,302
Hey after work come with me to the office.
I'll introduce friends to you.
368
00:51:18,838 --> 00:51:22,432
- Which office?
- You don't get it?
369
00:51:22,433 --> 00:51:25,242
- I don't know.
- It's New Park!
370
00:51:25,812 --> 00:51:30,950
We report there every single day
as if we have time cards to clock in on.
371
00:51:30,951 --> 00:51:35,754
- Well... Wanna go?
- Ok.
372
00:51:35,969 --> 00:51:40,388
You're not bad.
We should be able to become good friends.
373
00:51:54,782 --> 00:51:58,978
Those public toilets... They look like
any others toilets, but they are not.
374
00:51:58,979 --> 00:52:03,645
There are mysterious things going on,
hidden there. Be careful when you pee.
375
00:52:03,646 --> 00:52:07,125
Before you can wash your hands, those dirty
old men will already be grabbing you.
376
00:52:07,821 --> 00:52:12,690
- It happened to you before?
- Constantly. It's a common occurrence.
377
00:52:13,226 --> 00:52:16,824
In this park, I'm very valuable,
really unequalled.
378
00:52:18,031 --> 00:52:21,733
But those dirty old men,
I don't look even one of them in the eye.
379
00:52:41,454 --> 00:52:48,151
In our kingdom,
there are no days, only nights.
380
00:52:48,152 --> 00:52:57,765
Once darkness falls, like a mirage of an oasis
in the desert, it gradually materializes.
381
00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:02,470
The history of this kingdom
is shrouded in mystery.
382
00:53:03,343 --> 00:53:08,606
No one knows who founded it,
or when.
383
00:53:09,316 --> 00:53:14,219
A kingdom made up of ordinary people.
384
00:53:15,355 --> 00:53:18,119
The stretch of its borders
is pitifully small.
385
00:53:18,692 --> 00:53:24,563
A kingdom that rises around
a lotus pond,
386
00:53:25,432 --> 00:53:31,269
under a thick blanket of trees,
away from everything
387
00:53:31,771 --> 00:53:35,605
and hidden to the outside world.
388
00:53:37,744 --> 00:53:46,340
There, there are no distinctions
of social rank, age, or strength.
389
00:53:47,053 --> 00:53:53,885
What we share in common are hearts
filled with an insane loneliness.
390
00:53:54,394 --> 00:54:02,197
In the dim light of the moon above
we look like a pack of sleepwalkers.
391
00:54:03,136 --> 00:54:10,175
In this forest, frantically
stepping on each other's shadows,
392
00:54:10,176 --> 00:54:15,307
never stopping, in crazed
pursuit of love and lust.
393
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:25,000
